Thank you I thought so I saw no logicalway it would work. -
From my own experience I’d say avoid these £100 sets. I got one, with steel arbors, and have had very little success. I’ve since bought a 5,6 and 7 Bergeon and have done much better. You won’t need the full 34 piece Bergeon set, and even with that there will still be some anomalies that won’t work (eg a small barrel that needs a larger winding arbor) My tips therefore are: Avoid Chinese sets Get a few Bergeon if you want to have a go Hand wind Replace - Cousins mainspring search function is excellent.

I recently bought some UV activated resin. I bought it for fixing glasses, but it would work well in this case. It's great to work with. You have quite a long time to work (if you stay out of sunshine) before it sets - I use a cheap UV torch.

Good stuff caseback, nail varnish can work but you have to be super quick with it as it sets fast straight out of the bottle, though you can thin it down. Just needs a bit of tweeking on that kneebend to straighten out the endcurve and to align the collet. Looking good up to now though 👍
